I make french toast in two phases: first I sear them on a griddle then I bake them, thus the outside is crunchy and the inside is creamy. Â I’ve seen silicone baking sheets advertised like all hell during Christmas so I decided to my silicone cutting board as one and see if the food didn’t stick. Â So, I placed the seared toast on a baking sheet on top of the cutting board and popped it in the oven. Â After 5 minutes I pulled it out to find my toast floating on molten silicone. Â Thinking I’d lost a cutting board and baking mat, as it cooled I heard a popping noise. Â It was the cutting board solidifying and I quickly extracted the toast which didn’t appear to have any silicone on it. Â I now had a resolidified cutting board with 5 toast-shaped dents in it that came off in one piece. Â I tried a piece of the toast and it tasted….. rubbery. Â Not wanted to waste the toast I wrapped them in aluminum foil and wrote in Black Sharpie “Toast for Ryan”. Â Don’t tell him.
